On
the hour, Kevin McBride mauled Michael
Stewart on the half-way line and Hearts won
a free-kick. From that free-kick, came the
equaliser. Kingston drove the ball into the
box and Darren Barr cleared only as far as Michael
Stewart who drilled the ball into the
bottom corner from the edge of the area.
Falkirk
began to panic and seemed to be holding out
for a draw. he fans thought their chance of
a victory had gone when Lee Bullen
squandered a good opportunity for the
Bairns.
On
the counter attack, the ball fell to Steve
Lovell, who calmly picked out Scott
Arfield on the edge of the area, who
side-footed the ball through Berra's legs
and into the back of the net. Celebration
time!
The
points weren't safe yet though and
Christophe Berra rattled the crossbar with a
header from a corner. Falkirk kept it out
and came away with their first three points
of the season.
